    The Argument for Universal Reconciliation from the Book of Romans

    Hello, brothers and sisters in Christ. It seems clear to me, on a holistic, contextual reading of the Book of Romans, that Paul supported the idea of universal reconciliation in no uncertain terms. His statements, particularly in chapters 5 and 11, seem to support the eventual salvation not only...

    Is Jesus called YHWH in Joel 2:32/Romans 10:13?

    In Romans 10, Paul is discussing the Lord Jesus, and in verse 13, he writes (NKJV, emphasis mine): For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.” The reason "LORD" is capitalized by the New King James Version here is that in Joel 2:32, the original verse Paul quotes, the word used...

    The Nations were all reached

    Jesus instructed His disciples to go to all nations and preach the gospel and then the end would come. They did go to all the nations and so the end could come (in their lifetime.) In Acts 2:5 Peter preached to "devout men from every nation under heaven." Luke lists the nations this included...

    Does Romans 11:16-22 challenge Calvinism?

    Hello! I'm studying the Calvinism debate and looking at passages on both sides. The current passage I'm looking at is one that currently seems to go against Calvinism: Romans 11:16-22. I could be wrong; if so, could you answer the following questions of mine? 1. Are the branches individuals or...

    Passages challenging Calvinism

    Hello, all! For many months, maybe a year, I've been studying debates for and against Calvinism. While passages such as Romans 9 are claimed by Calvinists to support their position, I'd like to hear your view on at least one of the passages challenging Calvinism. (Quotations are from the New...

    So far in Romans

    I begin a new study with my facebook fellowship page with my facebook live feeds. And lately it is the book of Romans. I remember when I tried to read the book without the holy spirit it just felt like mumbo jumbo talk. But now that I have grown a little more, and have back slid so many times...

    Romans and Faith Alone

    First of all, it is clear that the verses here are talking about real Christians who were justified: "Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 5:1). "Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we...

    Prayer for Arabic Scammer.

    Hi there everyone. If you could pray for Habeeb who scammed me a few years ago that would be great. I hope he finds peace with God and won't be an internet scammer after and during his release.

    Love in Romans

    While I was teaching at a Bible college in Indonesia, I had the incredible blessing of teaching a class on Romans. This gave me the opportunity to study the book of Romans in depth. One of the ways I studied Romans was to study key words used throughout the book. This led to an insight about...

    Doing Good To Evildoers And The Story Of Jean Valjean

    Status: God's holding my hand as I walk very slowly. Still feel like I'm getting nowhere in my faith walk or in my life walk but surely I'm moving forward.

    Obedience to God

    Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, I always use Romans 3:28 to assert my belief that no Christian can or ever will be justified before God by the works of the law (good works, etc.). Although I truly believe I am saved by the blood of Christ and not by works...
